I love to cook. I have been cooking since I can remember and like to create dishes that are just a bit different.I am also a bit of a cheat. I like authentic flavours but if I am cooking for a dinner party I want to spend time with my guests rather than slaving away in the kitchen while they are drinking wine at the table.I like to think that my recipes are quick and relatively easy.I try to keep fat and salt to a minimum and use Olive or Rapeseed oil as somebody told me that it was healthy.I almost never cook with salt. My blood pressure is borderline and I am told that too much salt isn't good for you.Sugar is my biggest wind up! I like sugar in sweet things like cake and ice cream but why do they have to put it in Gravy?I check the ingredients of everything I buy and if a savoury product lists sugar on the ingredients then it goes back on the shelf.
